Habilidades blandas en la Educación en Ciencias de la Salud: Revisión de alcance sobre su integración curricular.
Resumo
Resumo
Introdução: As chamadas habilidades socioemocionais — como comunicação, empatia, trabalho em equipe, inteligência emocional, resiliência e liderança — são fundamentais para uma atenção em saúde segura, humanizada e centrada na pessoa. No entanto, seu ensino e avaliação nos currículos das ciências da saúde permanecem heterogêneos e pouco padronizados.
Objetivo: Sintetizar as evidências disponíveis em revisões sistemáticas e de escopo sobre como as habilidades socioemocionais são desenvolvidas, ensinadas, avaliadas e integradas curricularmente na educação em ciências da saúde.
Metodologia: Realizou-se uma revisão panorâmica de revisões sistemáticas, revisões mistas e revisões de escopo conforme a diretriz PRISMA-ScR. Foram buscados estudos publicados entre 2020 e 2025 nas bases PubMed, Scopus, ScienceDirect, Cochrane Library, Epistemonikos, Web of Science e Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde (BVS). Extraíram-se dados sobre características das intervenções, competências abordadas, métodos pedagógicos, estratégias de avaliação e resultados. A qualidade metodológica das revisões incluídas foi avaliada pelas listas de verificação do Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) e pela ferramenta AMSTAR, e a certeza das evidências foi graduada segundo o sistema GRADE.
Resultados: Incluíram-se 19 revisões que abordam temas como comunicação clínica, empatia, inteligência emocional, educação interprofissional, habilidades não técnicas, aprendizagem baseada em problemas, resiliência e uso de tecnologias emergentes (realidade virtual e inteligência artificial). A maioria das intervenções — baseadas em simulação, metodologias ativas, aprendizagem baseada em projetos e prática supervisionada — demonstrou melhorias consistentes nas habilidades socioemocionais e, em alguns casos, efeitos positivos no comportamento relacionado ao cuidado ao paciente. Contudo, predominaram delineamentos quase experimentais, heterogeneidade conceitual e baixa padronização dos instrumentos de avaliação.
Conclusão: As evidências revisadas sustentam a integração estruturada e longitudinal das habilidades socioemocionais nos currículos das ciências da saúde. Entretanto, é necessário avançar em direção a marcos conceituais compartilhados, instrumentos de avaliação validados e estudos robustos que estabeleçam vínculos entre essas competências e os resultados clínicos, organizacionais e de bem-estar profissional
